Ms R’s Fabulous Portraits – Naperville Women’s Photography

That Red Dress

Ms R contacted me a while back after learning I not only offer family photography and beautiful headshots but also boudoir and glamour portraits . We chatted over some time and she let me know she had recently booked a session with another company (before she knew it was a service I offered) and was totally disappointed with her experience with them. She hoped a session with me would give her the portraits she was looking for.

After marriage (to her college sweetheart), three kids, and a busy career, sometimes mom’s sassy-ness gets put on the back burner. This beautiful portrait session was an opportunity to get some groove back.

We planned her session and she came absolutely prepared with several looks to choose from and a completely open mind. But one of the items she brought stopped me in my tracks – The Red Dress.

Yes.

Without hesitation I knew we had to shoot her in this dress. It was sparkly and short – and best yet – she’d worn it early in her University career and recently found it again after several years and was delighted to find it still looked fantastic on her.

The Red Dress got a lot of action in this shoot. Ms. R looked absolutely stunning in it.

For Real, you guys.

First – the before and after (ok, the sort of before, we’d already gotten started with the professional hair styling provided in every single one of our portrait sessions.)
